What is hair restoration?
Am I an ideal patient for hair restoration?
Ideal candidates for hair restoration are individuals with sufficient donor hair and realistic expectations about the outcome of the procedure. Candidates should have good overall health and a stable hair loss condition. During the initial consultation, Dr. Saman, a board-certified facial plastic surgeon, evaluates the patient’s hair loss condition, hair density, and scalp health to determine candidacy.
- Candidates for hair restoration typically exhibit healthy hair growth at the back and sides of the head.
- Additional factors like hair color, texture, and waviness or curliness may influence the cosmetic outcome of the procedure.
- Various techniques are employed in hair replacement treatment, with combinations of techniques often utilized to optimize results and achieve the desired outcome.
Factors such as the level of hair loss, degree of hair loss, receding hairline and the effects of hair loss need to be carefully assessed. Additionally, considerations are made for individuals experiencing female hair loss or those with finer hairs, as different hair types may require specific approaches to achieve fuller hair. Regardless of the hair loss situation, patients are presented with a range of hair restoration options tailored to their unique needs, providing a comprehensive solution and effective treatment for hair loss.

More about hair restoration procedures
Hair restoration procedures typically involve follicular unit transplantation (FUT) or follicular unit extraction (FUE).
- In FUT, a strip of hair-bearing scalp is removed from the donor area, and the individual follicular units are dissected and transplanted into the recipient area.
- FUE involves harvesting individual follicular units directly from the donor area and transplanting them into the recipient area.
Both techniques can achieve natural-looking results with minimal scarring, although FUT usually leaves a more noticeable scar. The number of hair transplant sessions required depends on the extent of the hair loss and the desired outcome. Some patients may achieve their desired results with a single session, while others may require multiple sessions spaced several months apart to achieve optimal hair density and coverage
After hair restoration surgery, patients are provided with specific instructions for postoperative care to ensure proper healing and optimal results. Patients may experience some discomfort, swelling, and minor scabbing in the recipient area, which typically resolves within a few days to weeks. It is essential to follow the surgeon’s recommendations for aftercare, including avoiding strenuous activities and protecting the scalp from sun exposure to reduce the risks of linear scar.
One common concern among individuals considering hair restoration is whether the procedure is painful. Fortunately, advancements in surgical techniques and anesthesia have significantly minimized discomfort during the procedure. Patients may experience some mild discomfort or soreness in the donor and recipient areas following surgery, but this can typically be managed with prescribed pain medications.
Hair restoration encompasses various methods and techniques aimed at addressing hair loss and restoring a fuller head of hair.
- Among the most common approaches is surgical hair restoration, which involves transplanting healthy hair follicles, typically in the form of follicular unit grafts, from the donor area to the recipient area. This hair transplant technique results in a natural appearance and is often preferred over traditional methods.
- Additionally, hair restoration clinics offer a range of treatments for hair loss, including surgical and non-surgical options, providing individuals with a comprehensive solution to their hair loss concerns.
Whether seeking a permanent solution through surgical hair restoration or exploring non-invasive treatments, such as medications or laser therapy, hair restoration clinics offer personalized solutions tailored to each individual’s needs and desired outcomes.
Hair restoration can be combined with other hair loss treatments or procedures to enhance results. This may include medications to promote healthy hair growth, laser therapy to stimulate hair follicles, or platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy to improve blood supply to the scalp. Depending on the individual patient’s needs and preferences, the surgical team may recommend a combination of treatment options for optimal outcomes.
